Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method, comprising: identifying, by a mobile device, a failure scenario for previously-failed radio resource control (RRC) connection re-establishment requests, from the mobile device, in a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) network; monitoring, by the mobile device, real-time context data for a match with the failure scenario; and applying, by the mobile device, preemptive settings for an upcoming RRC connection re-establishment request in response to identifying a match with the failure scenario, wherein the preemptive settings are configured to maintain an active session between the mobile device and the LTE network.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, the identifying a failure scenario includes: logging, in a memory of the mobile device, context data for multiple failed RRC connection re-establishment attempts; determining if a particular detected attempt indicates a repeated failure; and recording context data for the repeated failure as the failure scenario when the particular detected attempt indicates a repeated failure.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: performing the RRC connection re-establishment request using the preemptive settings; determining if the RRC connection re-establishment request using the preemptive settings is successful; and storing the preemptive settings associated with the failure scenario when the RRC connection re-establishment request was successful.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the failure scenario includes context data at a time of sending a RRC connection re-establishment request, the context data including: one or more RF signal strength values, and location coordinates.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the failure scenario further includes context data including: a direction, and a speed.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the real-time context data includes data obtained from one or more external devices.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the one or more external devices includes a vehicle telematics unit.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the preemptive settings include: adjusting a wait timer for the upcoming RRC connection re-establishment request, or modifying selection of a default access node for sending the upcoming RRC connection re-establishment request.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: applying, by the mobile device, default settings for the upcoming RRC connection re-establishment attempt when there is not a match with the failure scenario.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein monitoring the real-time context data for a match with the failure scenario includes identifying a match for a tower identifier prior to matching one or more of: a signal strength value, a location value, a direction value, or a speed value.
11. A mobile device, comprising: one or more memories to store instructions; and one or more processors configured to execute instructions in the one or more memories to: identify a failure scenario for previously-failed radio resource control (RRC) connection re-establishment requests, from the mobile device, in a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) network; monitor real-time context data for a match with the failure scenario; and apply preemptive settings for an upcoming RRC connection re-establishment attempt in response to identifying a match with the failure scenario, wherein the preemptive settings are configured to maintain an active session between the mobile device and the LTE network.
12. The mobile device of claim 11 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to execute instructions in the one or more memories to: perform the RRC connection re-establishment attempt using the preemptive settings; determine if the RRC connection re-establishment attempt is successful; and store, in the memory, the preemptive fix associated with the failure scenario when the RRC connection re-establishment attempt was successful.
13. The mobile device of claim 11 , wherein, when identifying a failure scenario, the one or more processors are further configured to execute instructions in the one or more memories to: log, in the one or more memories, context data for multiple failed RRC connection re-establishment attempts; determine if a particular detected attempt indicates a repeated failure; and record context data for the repeated failure as the failure scenario when the particular detected attempt indicates a repeated failure.
14. The mobile device of claim 11 , wherein the failure scenario includes context data associated with sending a RRC connection re-establishment request, the context data including: one or more RF signal strength values, and location coordinates for the mobile device.
15. The mobile device of claim 11 , wherein the failure scenario includes context data associated with sending a RRC connection re-establishment request, the context data including: a direction of the mobile device, and a speed of the mobile device.
16. The mobile device of claim 11 , wherein, when monitoring real-time context data, the one or more processors are further configured to execute instructions in the one or more memories to: obtain data from one or more of a locator system or a vehicle telematics unit.
17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions executable by a mobile device to: identify a failure scenario for previously-failed radio resource control (RRC) connection re-establishment requests, from the mobile device, in a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) network; monitor real-time context data for a match with the failure scenario; and apply preemptive settings for an RRC connection re-establishment attempt in response to identifying a match with the failure scenario, wherein the preemptive settings are configured to maintain an active session between the mobile device and the LTE network.
18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 , further comprising instructions to: apply default settings for the RRC connection re-establishment attempt when there is not a match with the failure scenario.
19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 , further comprising instructions to: log context data for multiple failed RRC connection re-establishment attempts; determine if a particular detected attempt indicates a repeated failure; and record context data for the repeated failure as the failure scenario when the particular detected attempt indicates a repeated failure.
20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the failure scenario includes context data at a time of sending a RRC connection re-establishment request, the context data including: an eNodeB identifier, one or more RF signal strength values, location coordinates, a direction, and a speed.
